Chapter 180~ Is She The One?

Jaxx's Point Of ViewI felt the tension radiate through her palm before I even heard her breath hitch. Elena's fingers tightened around mine, her nails digging slightly into the meat of my hand, and for a split second, I sensed her take a half-step back, trying to vanish into the shadows of the doorway. Her pulse hammered against my wrist where our skin touched... a frantic, trapped bird desperate for escape. The rhythm was erratic, panicked, and it sent a jolt of something fierce and protective straight through me.I didn't like it. Not one bit. The protective instinct that roared to life in my chest was primal, immediate, and entirely foreign to me. I'd spent years building walls, cultivating distance, making sure no one got close enough to matter. Yet here she was, trembling beside me, and every instinct I possessed screamed at me to shield her from whatever had put that fear in her veins.The air in the ballroom hung thick with the scent of lilies, expensive champagne, and the

Chapter 181~ Rightfully By My Side

Elena's Point Of ViewThe old man didn’t say anything for a long, agonizing minute. I could see the questions swirling in the depths of his dark eyes… questions about why she seems familiar, about how I’d found her, and probably about why I looked like I was ready to burn the whole ballroom down if anyone so much as breathed in her direction. But I didn't give him an inch. I just stood there with my hand anchored on her waist, feeling the small, rhythmic trembles of her body against mine, and I smiled. It wasn't my business smile. It was the smile of a man who had finally found the piece of the puzzle he didn't even know was missing.Pops nodded slowly, his gaze finally breaking away from mine to settle on Elena with a look that was surprisingly soft. "She’s very beautiful, Jaxx," he said, his voice carrying that gravelly weight of authority. "You sure have good eyes for good things... just like me."I felt the tension in Elena’s shoulders give way just a fraction, but the moment th

Chapter 182~ This Is Getting Dangerous

Jaxx's Point Of ViewThe lights in the ballroom dimmed, shifting from the aggressive brilliance of the chandeliers to a soft, amber glow that pooled across the marble like spilled honey. It was time. The first dance of the evening always belonged to the celebrant, and in this house, that meant the world stopped turning until the old man took his place. Every conversation halted mid-sentence. Every glass paused halfway to waiting lips. I stood there, my hand still resting on the small of Elena's back, feeling the way she struggled to breathe through the tension. The subtle tremor running through her body told me everything her composed expression tried to hide. She was terrified, though she'd die before admitting it. Around us, the atmosphere shifted, grew thick and charged. It became heavy with the desperate, suffocating ambition of the women in the room. I could see them… daughters of oil magnates, nieces of senators, socialites with faces pulled so tight they looked like porcel

Chapter 183~ This Is Going Too Fast

Elena’s Point Of ViewThe music swelled and dipped, the final notes of the waltz vibrating through the soles of my shoes as Jaxx's grandfather led me back toward where Jaxx stood.The old man moved with a frighteningly steady grace, his hand warm and dry against mine, each step measured and deliberate.I felt like I was being escorted by history itself… by decades of power and legacy condensed into one elegant figure.Jaxx was watching us with an expression I couldn't quite name… intense, proprietary, and maybe a little surprised. His eyes never left me, tracking every movement, every breath. The weight of his gaze made my skin tingle."Let me return you to him before he decides to start a war with his own grandfather," the old man said, his voice a low rumble that held equal parts amusement and affection. I couldn't help it; I laughed. It was a nervous, airy sound, but it felt good, like releasing pressure from a valve I didn't know was building.He stopped in front of Jaxx and gentl

Chapter 184~ I'm Not Going To Hurt You, Elena

Elena’s Point Of View"What the fuck?!!!"My scream probably echoed halfway to the ballroom. I spun around so fast I nearly tripped over my own feet, my back now firmly to him while my heart hammered a frantic, desperate rhythm against my ribs.Heat flooded my cheeks, a mortifying combination of shock and something I refused to name. Something that felt dangerously like awareness.My palms pressed over my eyes, but the damage was done… the image was already burned into my retinas. The way the steam had clung to the hard, carved lines of his thighs, the sheer, unyielding power of his frame.Every muscle, every angle, every inch of him was impossibly real, impossibly there. And impossibly difficult to forget."Cover up! Cover up right now, you shameless prick!" The words tore from my throat as I yelled at the wall, my voice cracking with a mixture of terror and a heat I didn't want to admit was there.My pulse thundered in my ears, drowning out rational thought. I sounded hysterical eve

Chapter 185~ I'm Admiring The View

Elena's Point Of ViewThe air in the room didn't just feel heavy anymore; it felt like it had been replaced by pure, uncut electricity, crackling against my skin with every shallow breath. I stood there, trapped between the towering, damp heat of his body and the terrifying weight of his words.I'll rather die than hurt you.Was he serious? Was this some kind of twisted, dark romance fever dream? I searched his eyes for the punchline, for the smirk, for the "gotcha" that would make my world make sense again. My pulse hammered in my throat, each beat a question I was too afraid to ask aloud. But it wasn't there. His face was a mask of jagged, raw sincerity… the kind that strips away all pretense and leaves only truth. He looked like a man who had just handed me the keys to his kingdom and told me to burn it down if I felt like it. The vulnerability in his expression scared the hell out of me. I'd seen Jaxx confident, commanding, even arrogant, but never this exposed, never this break

Chapter 186~ Wife You Up

Elena’s Point Of ViewI stared into his eyes, and for the first time, I didn't see the cocky, untouchable billionaire or the teasing man who liked to pull my strings. What I saw in that dark, swirling depth scared the absolute hell out of me. It was a cocktail of raw need, unadulterated want, and something sharper… something that looked dangerously like obsession.The intensity of his gaze made my pulse hammer against my ribs, each beat a frantic drum warning me to flee.I swallowed hard, my throat suddenly feeling like I'd been wandering through a desert for days without water. My brain became a chaotic mess of conflicting impulses… run away warring with never let go, self-preservation battling against the treacherous pull of desire.Words failed me completely.Even breathing seemed like a skill I'd forgotten how to master, as if my body had betrayed every instinct for survival. My hands trembled slightly where they rested against his shoulders, and I hated how vulnerable that small

Chapter 187~ What Do You Want Me To Do For You, Angel?

Elena’s Point Of ViewMy mouth hung open in a silent, jagged gasp. I lay sprawled across this mahogany table like a sacrifice, the wood cool against my feverish skin while Jaxx knelt between my legs with a focus that was terrifyingly absolute.He didn't look like a man joking around. He looked like a predator who had finally reached the climax of a very long, very patient hunt. The intensity radiating from him made the air feel thick, charged with something primal and inescapable.The shock of his words… the "wife you up" part, the "binded to me" part, still rattled around my skull, making me wonder if he'd lost his mind or if I'd lost mine for staying. Those weren't casual promises whispered in the heat of passion. They sounded like vows, like declarations carved in stone. My heart hammered against my ribs, each beat a question I couldn't answer.But then he reached out, his hands large and warm, and gripped my ankles with surprising gentleness. The contrast between his predatory sta

Chapter 188~ Tell Me Who I Am To You, Bambina

Elena’s Point Of ViewThe cool mahogany of the table felt like ice against my bare skin, a stark contrast to the furnace that was Jaxx. I lay open, raw and trembling, gazing down at the man who had just claimed he'd "wife me up" before I even had a say in it.My mind screamed that he was insane… that this was all moving at a speed that should be breaking the sound barrier. Yet when I looked at him, I didn't see a crazy person. I saw a man with a plan, a man whose focus had narrowed so completely to the space between my thighs that nothing else in the universe existed.It was terrifying. It was the most intoxicating thing I had ever felt. My heart hammered against my ribs, caught between panic and desire."Your wish is my absolute command, my queen," he whispered, his voice vibrating against my inner thigh.Then, he dove in.I let out a sound that wasn't even human as his fingers parted me, exposing every sensitive nerve to the sudden, shocking heat of his mouth. His tongue didn't just

Chapter 189~ I Want To Keep Her

Jaxx's Point Of ViewI didn't stop. Even when I felt the violent, rhythmic tremors of her release clamping down on me, I kept going. I needed her to feel every bit of my weight, every inch of the claim I was staking. Her scream still echoed in the high corners of the suite, a jagged, beautiful sound that made my blood sing.The raw vulnerability in that cry… uninhibited, completely mine, sent a primal satisfaction coursing through me. I drove into her one last time, deep enough to touch her soul, and finally let go, emptying everything I was into her while the world narrowed down to the feel of her nails dragging down my back. The silence that followed was heavy, broken only by our ragged breathing. I eased out of her slowly, a low groan vibrating in my throat at the loss of that incredible heat. Elena's body sagged against mine, her head dropping onto my shoulder as if her bones had turned to liquid.The fierce woman who'd commanded a room full of Chicago's elite just hours ago now
